a SABBATH LONG AGO.

Swing open wide, o doors Of time!
Let olden memories hold their sway;
Blot out the years of golden prime
And let the past come back to-day.
D, memory fond, what blessings sweet
Are waiting near thy open doors;
What waves of fragrance come to greet,
Life perfume fresh from fairer shores.
Like floods of sunshine from the hills
That fill the wales with golden light,
my radiance soft my spirit thrills
Ana makes the present fair and bright.
Thy hand shall lead me back again
Far past the whitened mounds of years;
Thy presence Danish all the pain
That time has fed with bitter tears.
1 see a dreamy Sabbath day
Touched SOFT with natures fairy wand:
Sweet incense rose from new -mown hay
That lay in waves along the land.
L see a smooth and level road
That led along the dear old town,
Near purpling hills and pastures broad,
And soft green meadows sloping down.
A Sabbath hush our senses greet,
The day is rich with wealth of June;
The insects feel the silence sweet
And fill the air with drowsy tune.
High on the hill the old church stood,
Its red brown gables outlined there,
Save when the people knelt in prayer
The pulpit high, with straight backed chair,
And altar cloth Of brightest red;
. The pews so rigid, stark and bare,
And dark beams showing overhead.
The dear old pastor, grim and straight,
Prayed long and loud for all to come:
Give grace TO those who tarry late,
And guide the wandering sinner home"
above our heads the choir were proud
In Sunday dress, demure and prim,
And fresh young voices, clear and loud,
In concert sang the good old hymn.
Then all the people turned about
And facing them in silence stood,
And grand "Old Hundred floated out
And mingled with the golden food
No organ pealed its anthems brave
To lift our souls in silent prayer,
But soft "A charge to keep l have"
sent out its sweetness on the air.
Then fell the benedction sweet:
THE peace of God with you abide:"
And then we walked with decorous feet
Out through the old brown door so wide.
Once more we felt the sunshines gold,
And met the fragrance of perfume,
And first" and third" and creeds so old
Were lost in summers matchless bloom
The Sabbath air was sweet with rest,
Up from the river crept the dewS,
Inc sun CLEANED red adown the west
And faded into purpllng hueS.
Shut fast thy doors, o memory, kind,
And call the dreamer back again,
They walk Ter graves who seek to find
Their youth long lost in years of pain.

The jackson Advertiser, II paper
that is disgrace to journalism, aud
which the New Mississippian has well
termed, the Daily Aid to Assassination,
says sit seems that the Vieksburg
Post has been doing some underhand
work behind the scenes"
The Advertiser is published by W.
Q. Lowd, who was Radical politician
and Office-holder in the days when
every decent white man was Demo-
crat, and who was turned out of his
position as Deputy in one of the State
Departments for thieving or forgery.
OF course the old ex Radical officers
are in sympathy with each other, but
there was no need for Lowd to take a
hand in the vile attacks on the Post.
In making the assertion that the Post
has been doing underhand work, it
seems to us that Mr.. Lowd is liar.
